Tamano-No-Mae Elden Ring build
Welcome to something new I'm trying out, inspired by @grailfinders who make some amazing DND and Pathfinder builds for servants. In other words welcome to Fate/Elden Ring! For my first major one of these since I've posted a few my past builds, I'll be doing @yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo 's request to do Tamamo-No-Mae. So we need magic, fire, a mirror, fox ears and a tail along with a shrine maiden outfit... This is gonna be scuffed as hell.
Starting with the stats for the build:
Vigor: 50 so you can survive a hit (this should always be a minimum of 50, I've seen people in the dlc with like 500 HP).
Mind: 25 this is a caster build so this is a must have.
Endurance: 26 light roll is nice and Tamamo is a fox so she's got to be quick on her feet.
Strength: 11 a few of your attack animations use punches and kicks but I've got a better way to get that damage.
Dexterity: 16 this is a little higher because your fox and so being agile makes sense.
Intelligence: 52 this ended up higher than I had planned but I need it for a spell.
Faith: 40 you were an goddess before splitting your tails from yourself.
Arcane: 10 this just served no purpose so I got no puns for it.
The fashion is probably the most scuffed part of this build, I tried to base it off her third ascension:
Nox swordstress crown is the only way to get anything close to fox ears.
Queens robe actually looks really close to her 3rd ascension outfit.
Godskin bracelets I just thought these looked fitting.
Thiollier's trousers we don't really have any leggings but these pants resemble Japanese pants pretty well.
Now we move onto the talismans of the build and being that this is an almost pure caster build you can expect a few staples of caster builds:
Radagon Icon for some quicker casting on your spells.
Graven Mass Talisman for more damage on sorceries.
Flock's Canvas Talisman same as the mass talisman but for Incantations.
Crimson Amber Medallion+3 for more hp.
Now we get on to my favorite part of builds, the weapons:
Staff of Great Beyond works great and makes it so you don't have to swap between a staff and seal, only downside is it looks kinda funky.
Dryleaf Arts will be your main hand weapon since Tamamo actually does punch and kick people, set it to Magic Infusion and either go with Palm Blast or Dryleaf Whirlwind for the ash of war.
Shield of Night is honestly more for looks that actual combat since she has a mirror for all her ascensions, the weapon art works with your guard counter and it's alright.
All of the Sorceries and Incantations I went with are based on her attack animations:
Divine Beast Tornado for a mid range wind attack.
Zamor Ice Storm for close range and make people chilly.
Glintstone Icecrag more ice.
Giantsflame take thee you're playing a sun goddess so fire comes with the territory.
Gravitational Missile because Tamamo-No-Mae was doing Hollow Purples before it was cool.
Crystal Release in all honesty this is just because one of her attacks is an ice shard Phalanx attack that flies forward so this is alright.
Founding Rain of Stars because Tamamo makes it rain.
Radagon's Rings of Light for that one attack where she makes multiple mirrors that spin around her like a circular saw.
This build should be pretty good, just be wary of getting hit with your armor and don't be afraid to swap around talismans if you want to focus on a more specific spell or use the weapons more. I have this setup for casting in mind so you guys enjoy it.
